Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

i just thought i had loaded a 3 inch 410 with 1 ounce of shot...i was using one of the old powder and shot measuring devices..turns out that 1 ounce of shot even though filled to the brim does not weigh 1 ounce using the shot measurement...i weighed thecontents of cup and it only weighed 3/4 ounce on scales...the shot measuring device is badly off by 1/4 ounce.. after putting correct amount of powder and very thin over powder card i filled the hull to the top then weighed the contents.. not hardly 7/8 ounce of shot... i retried this with no 9 shot and it weighed a little more than the no6s i was using. but still did not weigh 7/8 ounce... all said and done you can not put 1 ounce of shot in a 3 inch 410 hull with the correct powder load in it... only way to get 1 ounce in a 410 3 inch hull would be to leave out the powder..ha ive was wrong in saying that i had shot 1 ounce loads in a 410 no possible way to get that amount of shot in the hull..the shot measuring device was off by a lot so fellas i hope you check your shot measuring devices.. has anyone had this problem before.. bill you are right i will need to get me some longer cases or hulls to be able to shoot 1 ouce 410 loads...been trying to thinck how to lenthen plastic hulls but aint come up with any thing... any suggestions... charli

Order some 4" brass hulls from Rocky Mountain Cartridge. However, they may be a bit thick and not hold an ounce either.
